From the museum website, 10 March 2009
For the first time ever the Art Gallery of Ontario joins forces with one of the world’s greatest art institutions – The State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia. In May 2001, the AGO provides the only venue for Treasures from the Hermitage Museum, Russia: Rubens and His Age – a breathtaking array of Old Master paintings, drawings and decorative arts that form the cornerstone of the Hermitage’s unrivalled collections.
